IE5/Mac Band Pass (CSS) Filter

If the background color of this paragraph is green (a darker green than this page's background) then the hack was applied.

Example Code

p.test {
  background-color: #f66;
}

/* \*//*/
p.test {
  background-color: #6f6;
}
/* */

List of browsers that apply this

• IE5.x/Mac
• Opera 5 (I don't know about versions 1 through 4.)

List of browsers that do not apply this

• IE4-8/Win
• Firefox
• NS6.0-7.2
• NS4.x
• Opera 6+
• Safari
• Konqueror 3
• iCab 3
• IE4/Mac

Notes

• As long as you escape all but the end comment tag(s) where you want to resume allowing other browsers to see your code, you can put comments in between where you start and stop hiding a block of CSS code from browsers other than IE/Mac.
• I recommend you use *>html ("Star Child HTML") CSS Hack in conjunction with this hack to be nice to Opera 5.
